Unrivaled Medicine God c1-2204

by Feng Yise

  The more Ji Canglan talked, the more alarmed Old Man Han was.

  These words sounded very incredible, but thinking about it carefully, wasn't it exactly so?

  With Ji Canglan's status, he definitely would not utter such incomprehensible words. These words were definitely after he thought it over carefully.

  The life of the son of heaven's mandate was too tenacious!

  "This … Doesn't that mean that no matter what we do, we ultimately still can't escape the outcome of defeat? This Ji Qingyun can't be killed at all?" Old Man Han said in amazement.

  According to Ji Canglan's way of saying things, everything that they were doing right now was all futile. Then, what was the point?

  Ji Canglan smiled and said, "Not unkillable, it's just that the time hasn't arrived yet. Since we've already failed once, we absolutely can't fail a second time! The next time we make a move, there must be 100% assurance."

  "This … How to kill?" Old Man Han said speechlessly.

  Ji Canglan's expression turned intent, and his gaze was deep as he said, "Want to kill the child of destiny, one must first break his destiny! As long as one breaks his destiny, killing him will be as easy as blowing off dust."

  Old Man Han was stunned and blurted, "Breaking destiny? How to break?"

  Fate was determined by heaven. Regardless of whether it was the human race or fiend race, how could one possibly break destiny?

  Ji Canglan just smiled, and he did not answer Old Man Han.

  ...

  "Uncle Feng, why have you come?"

  Seeing Yue Jianfeng, Li-er was very surprised too.

  Yue Jianfeng looked to be laden with worries, an appearance of wanting to speak but swallowing the words back.

  The moment Li-er saw this appearance, her heart thumped. To be able to make Yue Jianfeng personally make a trip, something unforeseen must have happened to Bright Moon City.

  Yue Jianfeng heaved a sigh and said, "Ancestor's longevity is drawing to an end and is going to pass away in meditation very soon."

  Li-er's entire body involuntarily trembled when she heard that!

  "How can it be? Wasn't Ancestor in closed-seclusion all along these few years? Why would he suddenly …" Li-er said in disbelief.

  Yue Jianfeng also let out a sigh and said, "Ancestor's matters, I believe you also know. In his early years, he had a battle with the Zhou Family's ancestor and had long left behind hidden injuries already. A few days ago, his hidden injuries relapsed. Hence … his lifespan is exhausted ahead of schedule. Passing away in meditation … is also a matter of these few months. Li-er, you're my Yue Family's most important junior presently. His elderly self hopes to meet you before passing away. There are some things that he wants to instruct you face to face."

  "This …" The moment Li-er heard, she became caught in a dilemma.

  As a matter of fact, she and the Yue Family's ancestor did not have overly deep feelings.

  Ever since birth, the ancestor was in closed-seclusion all-year-round and never showed face before.

  But now that his elderly self was about to pass away in meditation, she had to make a trip back no matter what. It was just that Ye Yuan's pressing matter on hand right now was to make a trip to the Holy Region. This way, it would be marching in opposite directions to Ye Yuan.

  "Big Brother Yuan, I …"

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Since your ancestor wants to see you, you naturally have to make this trip back. Making a trip to the Holy Region, I'm just having a couple of words with those few old freaks. It won't take too much time either. Once the matters over there are settled, I'll go to Bright Moon City to find you."

  Actually, Ye Yuan could not bear to part with Li-er too. But a person's death was major. The Yue Family's ancestor's passing away in meditation was near at hand. If he did not let Li-er return, it was seriously going against moral principles.

  Others might, but he himself would not be able to disregard his own conscience on this.

  Chapter 1081 - City in the Sky

  During his previous life, Ye Yuan had heard before that the Yue Family still had a Void Mystic ancestor who stood aloof from worldly affairs. It was just that, did not think that his longevity actually drew to an end coincidentally at this time.

  The Yue Family had already gotten to know Yue Mengli's potential and would naturally take her to be the Yue Family's hope.

  How could such an important figure not show up?

  No matter how Ye Yuan loathed to part with Yue Mengli, he also could not do such a thing.

  Yue Mengli hated to part with Ye Yuan even more.

  To her, she only walked together with Ye Yuan after going through hardsh.i.p.s and dangers. She wished that she could keep sticking onto Ye Yuan and forever not part with him.

  But the affairs of human life were hard to predict. The Yue Family's important matter, she obviously could not really ignore it.

  "Ao Qian, follow Li-er. Make sure not to let her suffer any bit of harm. Otherwise, I'll hold you solely responsible!" Ye Yuan's tone was a never-before solemn.

  Ao Qian's expression turned stern as he said, "Yes, milord!"

  But Li-er refused and said, "Big Brother Yuan, this trip of yours is perilous. Those few Holy Region's major powers aren't that easygoing. Elder Ao's strength is very strong, you'd best bring him along beside you. I'm just making a trip back to Bright Moon City, why would I need any protection? If you really can't put your mind at ease, just let Wu Luo take a trip back with me."

  Yue Jianfeng also said, "Yeah, Lord Qingyun Zi. Bright Moon City is Li-er's home, could it be that there are still people who dare to bully her?"

  Ye Yuan was helpless and could only let Wu Luo accompany Li-er and leave together.

  Watching Li-er's silhouette disappear in the transmission array, Ye Yuan felt a sense of loss.

  ...

  Holy Region, it was a very special existence.

  It only had one large domain. But this place, it was the entire Divine Realm's strongest place.

  Not 'one of'!

  The lord of the Holy Region was the Heaven Stabilizing Divine King.

  And the Holy Region was also the one and only faction that possessed a Ten Great Divine King among the Eight Great Super Holy Lands.

  Apart from this, the Alchemist Association that established the entire alchemist system was also situated in the Holy Region.

  Of course, there was still the Heaven's Secret Tower that was veiled in mystery.

  So many powerful forces, including major forces, gathered in one region. The magnitude of might could be imagined.

  The title of Void Mystic powerhouses was mostly passed down from mouth to mouth.

  But the titles of the Ten Great Divine Kings were set by the Heaven's Secret Tower.

  Whether or not the rankings of the Ten Great Divine Kings were accurate or not, nobody knew as well. Because they had never fought before amongst themselves.

  At least, they had never exchanged blows before in front of people.

  But the Ten Great Divine Kings themselves did not seem to have much dissent towards this ranking. They tacit acknowledged this ranking.

  The lord of the Holy Region was titled the Heaven Stabilizing Divine King. Such a peerlessly tyrannical name naturally also represented his incomparably powerful strength.

  "This Holy Region is simply miraculous! Supporting the Divine Realm's largest city in the sky, how terrifying the essence energy does this require?" Jiang Taicang looked at that city high above the clouds and exclaimed with shock.

  The Holy City was the Holy Region's hub, and also the Divine Realm's largest city.

  Except, this city was not on the ground. It was established in the sky.

  The city was submerged in the clouds, unable to see through the actual situation at all. It could even be claimed as miraculous.

  Ye Yuan said with a smile, "The Holy City is a miracle in the first place, so what's there to kick up a great fuss over? If talking about which faction's inheritance in
this Divine Realm is preserved the most completely, it's none other than the Holy City. If not for this case, how could it give birth to Zhuge Qingxuan, that kind of monster?"

  "Zhuge Qingxuan?" Jiang Taicang could not help being stupefied when he heard this name. Clearly, it was very unfamiliar.

  Ye Yuan nodded and said, "That is the Heaven Stabilizing Divine King out of everybody's mouth, the rank one existence among the Ten Great Divine Kings."

  With this, even Ao Qian could not help perking his ears too.

  He had long heard of the name of the Ten Great Divine Kings, known as the ten strongest people in the Divine Realm presently.

  Then wouldn't this rank one be the present Divine Realm's number one person?

  Such an existence, how could they not be interested?

  Ruan Shuangzhou muttered, "Turns out that the Heaven Stabilizing Divine King's true name is called Zhuge Qingxuan!"

  Ye Yuan said smilingly, "I told you all long ago that these guys like to pretend to be mysterious. But Zhuge Qingxuan is really very strong! The other divine kings' titles are mostly related to their most-skilled fields, while Zhuge Qingxuan's isn't. This guy has virtually no weakness to exploit! His might practically makes people despair."

  The so-called Ten Great Divine Kings were unfathomable existences to other people.

  To a divine king expert like Ruan Shuangzhou, he did not even know Zhuge Qingxuan's name. But Ye Yuan had friendly relations with quite a few of the Ten Great Divine Kings. Their mysterious veil was nothing in front of Ye Yuan.

  But toward Zhuge Qingxuan's strength, Ye Yuan still admired greatly.

  Even such a proud fellow like the Spirit Bristle Divine King was full of praises towards Zhuge Qingxuan.

  His might naturally need not be elaborated.

  "Really that impressive? When I recover my strength, I want to find him to exchange views! I want to take a look if this Divine Realm's number one person currently is really that incredible or not!" Ao Qian said with an unconvinced look.

  Ye Yuan said smilingly, "The reason why Zhuge Qingxuan is powerful is also that the Holy City's inheritances are very complete. The Holy City's foundation has lasted all the way from the Divine Dao era until today. It's what ordinary factions can't imagine. Just take this grand array for example. It has operated for countless tens of thousands of years and didn't wane for a long time. Probably only Deity Realm powerhouses had such ability."

  The secrets in the Holy City were numerous. Just this divine rank grand array before their eyes made people marvel endlessly with admiration.

  Among those fleeting and ephemeral clouds, concealed an incomparably powerful grand array. This grand array had operated all the way from the Divine Dao era till today but did not have the slightest trend of weakening.

  Such a foundation was naturally not what ordinary forces could compare to.

  There had once been many powerhouses who wished to enter into the clouds to check things out. But without exception, they were all turned to dregs.

  Over the course of time, nobody dared to enter inside anymore.

  "Milord, everyone says that the Holy Region is easy to enter, but the Holy City is hard to go into. How … should we enter inside?" Ruan Shuangzhou said.

  Ye Yuan said with a smile, "You look, hasn't the ones fetching us arrived?"

  Everyone looked over. Sure enough, they saw a group of people floating down from the Holy City.

  A young man leading cupped his fists towards Ye Yuan and said, "May I ask if it's Lord Qingyun Zi?"

  Ye Yuan nodded and said, "Precisely so."

  The young man said very cordially, "Haha, it's really Lord Qingyun Zi! This one is Hou Yu, Holy City Purple-Gold Hall's fifth-seat disciple. Half a month ago, Hou Yu received Lord Cloudsky's dharmic decree to let me welcome Your Excellency here. I didn't think that today, Your Excellency finally arrived."

  Regarding the Holy City knowing about his arrival, Ye Yuan was not surprised.

  The Holy City was the Divine Realm's central. It was incomparably well-informed. Ye Yuan did not deliberately conceal his whereabouts either. With their strength, grasping his whereabouts was beyond easy.

  When this Hou Yu said that he was a disciple of the Purple-Gold Hall, a trace of pride flickered across his eyes.

  The Purple-Gold Hall was the hall where the Holy City's most elite disciples were at. Inside were virtually divine king powerhouses. To be able to rank fifth, his strength was rather out of the ordinary.

  Ye Yuan looked at Hou Yu and said with a smile that was not a smile, "What haughty airs Cloudsky old punk has! This young master arrived, and he actually doesn't receive personally!"

  Chapter 1082 - Golden Cloud Sky Stairs

  The moment these words came out, the countenance of Hou Yu and the group of disciples behind him suddenly changed.

  This guy proclaimed to be Qingyun Zi before their eyes. His age was much younger than them. But he behaved like a senior when saying these words.

  Who was Cloudsky?

  Cloudsky was one of the three titans of Holy City. His status in the Holy City was second only to the Heaven Stabilizing Divine King.

  Such a character personally appointing a disciple to come out and welcome, could it be that it was still not grand enough?

  This fellow in front of them was also a little too insolent, right?

  "H-Haha, Lord Cloudsky is too busy and truly can't find time to come and receive Your Excellency. I hope that Your Excellency doesn't take offense. Your Excellency, enter the city first. When Lord Cloudsky is done with work, he'll definitely come and pay a courtesy call to Lord Qingyun Zi," Huo Yu said with an obsequious smile.

  Ye Yuan gave him a glance and said with a cold smile, "Heh, this Cloudsky old punk, isn't it seeing that this young master is no longer the man I was, having a high opinion of his identity, that's why he dispatched you all to come forward? Forget it, coming this time is for important matters on hand. I won't stoop to the level of you all, these juniors."

  Hou Yu had an appearance as if a heavy burden was lifted off. He extended his hand to lead the way as he said, "Lord Qingyun Zi, please!"

  The place Hou Yu pointed at was a mass of golden-colored cloud. Under the shine of the sunlight, it appeared glistening.

  Ye Yuan was slightly surprised as he said, "Yo, Golden Cloud Sky Stairs. Cloudsky old punk is still giving a lot of face, huh?"

  Hou Yu said smilingly, "What's Lord Qingyun Zi saying? Your Excellency is the Divine Realm's pinnacle-most alchemist. With your status, naturally, there's only the Golden Cloud Sky Stairs that's fitting."

  But Ao Qian's expression changed, and he looked at Hou Yu viciously as he said, "What do you mean, brat?"

  But Hou Yu said calmly, "This senior, I don't understand your words. The Golden Cloud Sky Stairs is the Holy City's highest treatment of receiving distinguished guests. One step, three thousand stairs, what do you think I mean?"

  "You!" Ao Qian was tongue-tied for a moment and could not help looking at Ye Yuan as he said, "Milord, we'd best go up from the ordinary Cloud Sky Stairs!"

  Ao Qian, this kind of old monster, naturally came to the Holy City before.

  Flying was prohibited within 10 thousand miles of the Holy City. If someone attempted to fly into the Holy City, they would be decimated by the divine rank grand array.

  The only way to enter the Holy City was this Cloud Sky Stairs.

  Under the Holy City, there were masses of clouds. The shade of colors varied.

  As long as one stepped onto the clouds, a cloud and mist staircase would naturally form step by step. It was called Cloud Sky Stairs!

  The color of the Cloud Sky Stairs went from light to dark. It was divided into a total of nine ranks, corresponding to martial artists' nine ranks, respectively.

  Rank-one Cloud Sky Stairs, one step one stair. Reaching the Holy City from the bottom required a full one year's time.

  While the rank-nine Cloud Sky Stairs, one step, three hundred stairs. Ascending to the Holy City
required a day's time.

  While above rank-nine, there was an even higher level staircase still, named Golden Cloud Sky Stairs.

  The Golden Cloud Sky Stairs, one step, three thousand stairs. One only needed several hours to be able to reach the Holy City.

  This Golden Cloud Sky Stairs assumed a golden-color, looking extremely deluxe. It was indeed what the Holy City used to welcome distinguished guests.

  But, this Golden Cloud Sky Stairs, even ordinary Void Mystic powerhouses might not be able to ascend it safely either.

  When Ao Qian saw Hou Yu's very cautious manner, he even thought that Hou Yu was really apprehensive of Ye Yuan's identity. He did not expect that Hou Yu was scheming something!

  He was also perplexed earlier. His Excellency normally treated people very modestly. Why did he have a high and mighty attitude toward this brat in front of him?

  One had to know that him calling Cloudsky old punk, was placing him and Cloudsky on the capacity of the same generation.

  These few were merely the Purple-Gold Hall's disciples. They immediately became a generation lower compared to Ye Yuan.

  Only then did Ao Qian come to a realization why Ye Yuan had a very c.o.c.ky appearance just now. Turns out that he had long seen through this Hou Yu's little thoughts and deliberately postured for him to see!

  Hearing Ao Qian's words, Hou Yu feigned surprise and said, "How can this do? Lord Qingyun Zi is the Divine Realm's pinnacle-most alchemist, a person of the same generation as Lord Fengtian. How can he go up from the ordinary Cloud Sky Stairs? This way is also too deigning, right?"

  Ao Qian's face turned black, and he berated, "Brat, shut your mouth for this old man! Do you believe this old man will tear your mouth or not?"

  But Hou Yu did not care about him at all and pretended to have a sudden realization again as he said, "Ah! I know, could it be that Lord Qingyun Zi reincarnating, he can't even mount this Golden Cloud Sky Stairs now? Lord Qingyun Zi, this … Hou Yu had good intentions. I didn't think that Your Excellency actually can't go up! Sorry, truly sorry!"
